Welcome!  You will have a blast.  My suggestions about GPS devices is to 
consider the Garmin Etrex series.  Specifically a model that is HCx for hi 
sensitivity, color screen and allows for a memory card.  A hi sensitivity chip 
is a must and will help you under heavy cover.  You also will want a GPS that 
will allow for download of maps and waypoints.  Most Etrexes will do that.  
Amazon.com has the legend for about $210.  Welcome again!

Hey-

My girlfriend and I hope to start GeoCaching in the next few weeks.
Currently researching GPS devices and learning all about it.  If
anyone has any suggestions we would be glad to listen!  We are from
Belleville, IL.

Thanks!
Matt and Lauren
